Young Alumni Trustees: Eligibility, Election, Results
The Young Alumni Trustee position was created in 1969 to ensure that the University’s Board of Trustess would always include four members with recent experience as undergraduates. Young Alumni Trustees have the same rights, powers and duties as all other trustees and take the same oath to “faithfully, impartially and justly” perform the duties of the office of trustee.
